COMPUTER ANALYSIS AND PROOFS THAT GOD, THE CREATOR OF ALL
|
||
THINGS, DID (IN FACT) WRITE THE 66 BOOKS OF THE HOLY BIBLE
|
||
|
||
PREFACE
|
||
|
||
"Do not deceive yourselves. If any one of you thinks he is wise
|
||
by the standards of this age, he should become a 'fool' so that he may
|
||
become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's
|
||
sight. As it is written: "He catches the wise in their craftiness";
|
||
and again, "The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile."
|
||
(1 Corinthians 18-20)
|
||
|
||
. This being the fourth printing of this report, we have modified the
|
||
content by the addition of much more information that we have been
|
||
able to develop through the past few years. You will now find the
|
||
first phenomena that was discovered that "led" us to the full Bible
|
||
discovery. We have also developed phenomena that shows that God
|
||
selected the books of the Books of the Bible - not man as claimed by
|
||
many.
|
||
The original report was written solely as a "FACT SHEET" to be
|
||
given to agnostic or atheist "intellectuals" by believers in the Lord
|
||
Jesus Christ to literally show in the "scientific" methods of proof
|
||
that the arguments they wish to make with believers are not with the
|
||
believers, but are, IN FACT, with the AUTHOR of the BIBLE - GOD. It
|
||
was designed to stop "attacks" on believers who believe on faith and
|
||
do not have the "intellectual" ability to discuss matters with
|
||
intellectuals who have presuppositions that there is not (or there may
|
||
not be) a God.
|
||
We have directed copies of the report to over 500 of the best
|
||
known centers for agnostic or atheist beliefs, including universities
|
||
or centers of learning conducted by Non-Christian organizations. We
|
||
issued this challenge: "Disprove the report and its data OR produce
|
||
any other text written by men as the scribes, that will contain any of
|
||
the same phenomena!" The ONLY condition we placed is that the
|
||
phenomena MUST be from inherent factors of the language and not
|
||
"contrived" by manipulation. By using a formula, the very word
|
||
COMPUTER can be shown to have a value of 666, which is the number of
|
||
the final ANTI-CHRIST; however, such methods are DESIGNED to produce
|
||
this result and are not an "inherent" feature of the English language.
|
||
Although we have a great deal of phenomena discovered, we will
|
||
concentrate on the Number SEVEN, as this is the number attributed to
|
||
God. (Created the earth in SEVEN days, etc.) In this document, you
|
||
will read of FACTS and PROOFS of God being the AUTHOR of the BIBLE.
|
||
By using the same basic phenomena, based on the FACT that GOD IS THE
|
||
SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW, (Hebrews 13:8) you may make
|
||
comparisons of other writings alleged to be God's Scripture.
|
||
|
||
--------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
In this age, there seem to be many "intellectuals" both in the
|
||
Christian community and outside it that disclaim the inspiration of
|
||
the Bible by God. Denominations, sects and cults are coming into
|
||
being on a daily basis that attempt to dehumanize Jesus or to humanize
|
||
God, and in most cases, attempt to make the Bible into GOD. No errors
|
||
have been found by this organization, and all alleged errors have been
|
||
shown, in context, to be non-existent upon careful investigation. In
|
||
most cases, the believer has been confronted with the claim that
|
||
"there is no scientific proof" of the Bible. The definition of
|
||
"Scientific" means that the evidence can be reproduced under
|
||
laboratory conditions. You will find that all evidence presented will
|
||
qualify as "Scientific" in the sense that it can be repeated under
|
||
such conditions, and we invite such scrutiny. In addition, the
|
||
sciences of archaeology, astronomy, physics, Astro-physics or
|
||
mathematics all have produced evidence of the correctness of the Bible
|
||
- even when the Bible was contradictory to the "known" science of a
|
||
particular period of time.
|
||
We have discovered additional collaboration of our findings in the
|
||
work of one Dr. Ivan Panin, who spent his life in bible research. We
|
||
deeply admire the effort and results of Dr. Panin, and dedicate this
|
||
writing to his memory and to the Glory of our mutual Savior, Jesus
|
||
Christ.
|
||
It should be mentioned that Dr. Panin issued much the same
|
||
challenge we issued in our preface, back in 1940. No one ever took up
|
||
that challenge, and we still await the first challenge after three
|
||
years....
|
||
It is our hope and prayer that this document will be used to make
|
||
it evident to a skeptic, whether they be "intellectual" or "agnostic"
|
||
or "atheist" or a combination, that the God known in a personal
|
||
relationship sense by those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior,
|
||
is the God of Nature, God of the Universe, and by proofs evident in
|
||
this document, God of the Bible. We propose this "logic flow":
|
||
|
||
1. If GOD inspired the scriptures, then they cannot be anything other
|
||
than TRUTH.
|
||
|
||
2. If they are TRUTH then one of the TRUTHS is that JESUS CHRIST IS
|
||
THE ONLY WAY BY WHICH ANY HUMAN MAY COME TO GOD, and:
|
||
a. God is the same - yesterday, today, and tomorrow
|
||
b. God is the "I AM" of the Bible and did not exist in any form
|
||
other than as GOD, is the ONLY GOD in existence, and HE DOES NOT
|
||
PERMIT ANY OTHER GODS TO EXIST IN REALITY. (Mankind seems to make
|
||
gods out of anything they wish.)
|
||
|
||
3. That ANY teachings that ADD or SUBTRACT from the 66 books of the
|
||
Bible are NOT OF GOD, THE AUTHOR of these 66 books. Jesus Christ
|
||
commanded that "Not one jot or tittle be added or removed" from the
|
||
Scriptures until His coming, again. Jesus and the angels at Pentecost
|
||
clearly made it known that Jesus would return EXACTLY as He left -
|
||
BODILY and FROM THE HEAVENS!
|
||
|
||
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF THE DIVINE INSPIRATION OF
|
||
THE BIBLE
|
||
|
||
In discussing the matter of the evidence being presented in this
|
||
report, it is imperative that we provide an explanation of the
|
||
inherent factors of the HEBREW, ARAMAIC and GREEK languages. These
|
||
languages were unique in that they did not have a set of characters to
|
||
represent numbers such as our present 1,2,3, etc. Instead, the Hebrew
|
||
language made use of the letters of the alphabet; so that the first
|
||
letter of the alphabet stood for 1, the second for 2, the third for 3,
|
||
etc., until the 11th letter represented 20, the twelfth letter 30,
|
||
etc. through 800. (The Greek language also had this particular
|
||
feature). Thus each letter had a numeric value. In this manner, each
|
||
word can be given a value by adding the cumulative total value of each
|
||
of its letters. Additionally, each character was assigned a PLACE
|
||
value. If we were to apply the same factors to the English language
|
||
by ignoring numerical characters, we would do it like this:
|
||
|
||
PLACE VALUES
|
||
|
||
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
|
||
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O
|
||
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 20 30 40 50 60
|
||
|
||
NUMERIC VALUE
|
||
|
||
The difficulty in translating the Scriptures, due in part to these
|
||
numeric methods, was also due to the fact that these languages did not
|
||
have punctuation. Sentences were run together without spacing,
|
||
commas, or any other separation. In English this would be done in
|
||
this manner:
|
||
|
||
THISISASAMPLESENTENCEINTHEFORMFORGREEKARAMICANDHEBREW
|
||
|
||
To break this down, we read the above sentence thus:
|
||
|
||
THIS IS A SAMPLE SENTENCE IN THE FORM FOR GREEK, ARAMAIC AND
|
||
HEBREW.
|
||
|
||
Using the numeric factors of the languages, we note the chart
|
||
above that the first ten letters PLACE values and NUMERIC values are
|
||
the same. At the eleventh letter the Numeric value of each letter
|
||
begins to increase by ten, until the value of 100 is reached, and then
|
||
each letter would be increased by 100. In the Greek language, there
|
||
are 22 characters. The last character would have a place value of 22,
|
||
and a numeric value of 400. To show an example of this in English, we
|
||
would proceed thus:
|
||
|
||
THISISASAMPLESENTENCEWITHTHENUMBEROFKASHOWN
|
||
|
||
THIS IS A SAMPLE SENTENCE WITH THE NUMBER OF KA SHOWN
|
||
|
||
K = 11th letter with Numeric Value of 20
|
||
A = 1st letter with Numeric Value of 1
|
||
(or to say it where we can understand it)
|
||
|
||
THIS IS A SAMPLE SENTENCE WITH THE NUMBER OF 21 SHOWN
|
||
|
||
Now that we have explained the "difficulties" of these languages,
|
||
we will now proceed with the "narration" of the first lead we received
|
||
in our investigation to ascertain if there was any basis for
|
||
"scientifically" proving the Bible.
|
||
|
||
GENESIS 1:1 COMPUTER VERIFICATION OF A MIRACLE
|
||
|
||
The Bible begins with "IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS
|
||
AND THE EARTH". The number of words in the original Hebrew (which was
|
||
the language of the Old Testament) is SEVEN words.
|
||
These SEVEN words have 28 letters (4x7). These 28 letters are
|
||
divided like this: The first three words (containing the subject and
|
||
predicate of the sentence - "In the beginning God created" -) have 14
|
||
letters (2x7); the last four words (containing the object of the
|
||
sentence - "the heavens and the earth" -) also have 14 letters (2x7).
|
||
The last four words are thus subdivided: The fourth and fifth words
|
||
(Containing one object - "the heavens" -) have SEVEN letters (7); the
|
||
sixth and SEVENth words (containing the second object - "and the
|
||
earth" -) also have SEVEN letters (7). In relation to the importance
|
||
of the words themselves, the 28 letters are thus divided: The three
|
||
leading words GOD the subject, heaven and earth the two objects, have
|
||
14 letters (2x7).
|
||
The numeric value of the first, middle, and last letters of this
|
||
sentence is 133 (19x7), while the numeric value of the first and last
|
||
letters of all seven words in this verse is 1393 (199x7). The first
|
||
and last letters of the first and last words have 497 (71x7); the
|
||
remaining words (between the first and last) have 896
|
||
(2x2x2x2x2x2x2x7). We break this amount down due to the factors being
|
||
SEVEN and TWO taken as a factor SEVEN times. The three important
|
||
nouns, God, heaven, and earth, have 14 letters (2x7). The numeric
|
||
value is 777 (111x7). The one verb, created, has 203 (29x7).
|
||
In this verse of only SEVEN words there are some repetitions. The
|
||
untranslatable particle ETH occurs twice and the article THE also
|
||
occurs twice. The numeric value of these repetitions is 406 (58x7).
|
||
This whole sequence should be referenced through Hebrews 13:8
|
||
where it says that God is the "same yesterday, today and tomorrow" and
|
||
where God Himself answers Moses and tells Moses that He is the "I AM",
|
||
meaning that he was before all things and will be forever the same.
|
||
We then conclude that: (1) If God is the same at all times and, by His
|
||
own word, does not change, then the numeric phenomena, briefly shown
|
||
above, should be a measure of whether God wrote the remainder of
|
||
Genesis, the Books of Exodus, Jonah, or any other Old Testament phrase
|
||
or book and, (2) It would also hold true for the New Testament (even
|
||
though the New Testament was written in Greek) in IDENTICAL patterns.
|
||
Finally, (3) We can also use the progressions of numerics as a test of
|
||
other texts that have been claimed to be revelations from God. If the
|
||
language of the ORIGINAL text is not Greek, Hebrew, or Aramaic /
|
||
Chaldean, then sufficient kinds of numeric structures will be evident
|
||
in as much as the language will permit. We ask that you take any of
|
||
these texts and test them against these structures. If they contain
|
||
any multiples of the numerics shown here, we would like to have you
|
||
communicate with us by directing a copy of the text, source of the
|
||
text, and your name, address, and phone number.
|
||
Now, with this "key" provided us in Genesis 1:1, we will proceeded
|
||
to analyze the whole Bible. Keep in mind that there are in excess of
|
||
three million words, or twenty million characters, in the 66 books of
|
||
the Bible. Also keep in mind that the "evidence" we are about to
|
||
present would be null and void, in most cases, if EVEN ONE CHARACTER
|
||
WERE DELETED, CHANGED OR ADDED!
|
||
The results of our complete Bible investigation and analysis are
|
||
thus:
|
||
|
||
1. The NUMBER of WORDS in the VOCABULARY will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
2. The NUMBER of WORDS that begin with a vowel will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
3. The NUMBER of WORDS that begin with a consonant will divide evenly
|
||
by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
4. The NUMBER of WORDS that begin with each letter of the language's
|
||
alphabet will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
5. The NUMBER of WORDS that occur more than once will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
6. The NUMBER of WORDS that occur only once will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
7. The NUMBER of WORDS that occur in only one form will divide evenly
|
||
by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
8. The NUMBER of WORDS that occur in more than one form will divide
|
||
evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
9. The NUMBER of WORDS that are nouns will divide evenly by SEVEN. ***
|
||
|
||
10. The NUMBER of WORDS that are not nouns will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
11. The NUMBER of LETTERS in the vocabulary will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
12. The NUMBER of LETTERS that are vowels will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
13. The NUMBER of LETTERS that are consonants will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
14. The NUMBER of PROPER NAMES will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
15. The NUMBER of MALE PROPER NAMES will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
16. The NUMBER of FEMALE PROPER NAMES will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
17. The TOTAL NUMERIC VALUE OF ALL THE WORDS will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
18. The NUMERIC VALUE OF THE VARIOUS FORMS in which the words occur
|
||
will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
19. The NUMBER OF WORDS THAT ARE FOUND IN ONLY ONE BOOK OF THE BIBLE
|
||
will divide evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
20. The NUMBER OF PROMISES FOUND in the BIBLE will divide evenly by
|
||
SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
21. The NUMBER OF DISPENSATION PERIODS is SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
22. The NUMBER OF GENERATIONS FROM ABRAHAM TO JESUS CHRIST will divide
|
||
evenly by SEVEN.
|
||
|
||
23. The BOOK OF REVELATION outlines SEVEN JUDGMENTS that will be made
|
||
on the Earth and its Peoples.
|
||
|
||
24. The BOOK OF REVELATION outlines SEVEN PLAGUES that will be made on
|
||
the Earth and its Peoples.
|
||
|
||
One of the above phenomena is followed by several asterisks (*).
|
||
The notation is made because we became unable to compute the
|
||
mathematical probabilities AT THAT PHENOMENA. (Note how many came
|
||
after that!!!). We had to suspend our investigation until we could
|
||
provide some basis of relating the probabilities, with some term that
|
||
could convey the extent of the matter. Upon conferring with the math
|
||
department of Stanford University, we were advised that there is a
|
||
term called a Google (some spellings show Gugle) which is ONE BILLION
|
||
TO THE BILLIONTH POWER! The term GOOGLEPLEX, then, is a GOOGLE to the
|
||
power of GOOGLE, and this is what is reached at the occurrence we have
|
||
noted with the asterisk! A GOOGLE amount of years can be referenced
|
||
by stating that if we had a mountain the size of Mount Everest that
|
||
was solid DIAMOND, and we allowed a bird to come ONCE A YEAR and MAKE
|
||
ONE PECK against this mountain, IT WOULD TAKE A GOOGLE OF YEARS TO
|
||
ERODE THAT MOUNTAIN TO SEA LEVEL!
|
||
We wish to restress the fact that if EVEN ONE CHARACTER was
|
||
changed, ADDED, or SUBTRACTED to the 66 books, then most of the above
|
||
results would not have been produced! To state that God is far above
|
||
man in intelligence is so much an understatement that we even hesitate
|
||
to make such a mention; However, there always seems to be someone that
|
||
does not realize the extent of these proofs as shown.
|
||
Some of the proofs are truly unique; such as, the NUMBER OF MALE
|
||
PROPER NAMES could not hold true UNLESS Moses is mentioned ONLY ONE
|
||
TIME in the Book of Revelation!
|
||
The issue of BIBLE ERRANCY is put to rest by these proofs. God is
|
||
shown to have dictated EACH AND EVERY CHARACTER of the Bible, and it
|
||
is inconceivable that God can make an error.
|
||
The issue of CONSPIRACY is put to rest by showing that ONLY GOD
|
||
could have put the characters together over fifteen hundred years,
|
||
through three different languages, and through use of several men from
|
||
widely differing backgrounds. Some Epistles were written at a single
|
||
sitting, and within a matter of minutes. The number of hours it would
|
||
have taken for even the writers that lived in the same time frame to
|
||
get together and CONSPIRE to produce these harmonic features is beyond
|
||
any belief. It is to be noted that THE ONLY POSSIBLE WAY FOR THE
|
||
WRITERS TO WRITE THEIR BOOKS, AND HAVE THE PHENOMENA OF HAVING WORDS
|
||
THAT ONLY THEY USED, would have required that each and every one of
|
||
them write their book LAST!
|
||
|
||
TRANSLATIONS
|
||
and
|
||
BIBLES OF LESS THAN OR MORE THAN 66 BOOKS
|
||
|
||
Although the phenomena we discovered only occur in the original
|
||
(Please refer to this subject in the book EVIDENCE THAT DEMANDS A
|
||
VERDICT by Josh McDowell, who explains the ability to have "original"
|
||
Scriptures far better than we could), we feel it necessary to state
|
||
that Translations DO NOT CONTAIN many of the phenomena. The doctrines
|
||
of the Bible, however, do hold consistent, and should be the most
|
||
important feature of any translation. The phenomena must occur in a
|
||
natural feature of the language in which it was written, and
|
||
translations are unable to maintain such phenomena.
|
||
An impressive feature, and one that caused us great difficulty, is
|
||
that by the addition of the Apocryphal books, the phenomena that occur
|
||
in the Bible as a WHOLE is thwarted. Not one of the phenomena,
|
||
(number of Proper Names, Number of Words in Alphabet, etc.) remains
|
||
when these books are considered, AND not one of these books contains
|
||
ANY phenomena of any ascertainable sort! It is our opinion that this
|
||
clearly refutes any claim by any religion, that these books are from
|
||
God. It is our contention that the fact that these books do not
|
||
contain even ONE of the phenomena, is sufficient evidence that they
|
||
should not be considered Scripture.
|
||
As for the "revisions" made by the Mormon church or by Jehovah's
|
||
Witnesses, we can only state that these changes eliminate the
|
||
phenomena, again a basis for rejection of their claims on a "correct"
|
||
version.
|
||
As we completed these investigations, we then focused our
|
||
attention on the writings alleged to be "additional" Scriptures, such
|
||
as the Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price, Koran, Doctrine and
|
||
Covenants of the Mormon Church, and Commandments of the Mormon church,
|
||
as well as writings from Moses David of the Children of God, Mary
|
||
Baker Eddy of Christian Science, and many, many others.
|
||
IN EACH AND EVERY CASE, THE ALLEGED "SCRIPTURES" FAILED ON EVERY
|
||
POSSIBLE PHENOMENA. We used the language that the claimed writings
|
||
were in and looked for phenomena that could be utilized by God within
|
||
those languages. For English, we felt that phenomena of Number of
|
||
letters or words in the alphabet, consonants and vowels, number of
|
||
proper names, etc. could be found if from God. Any phenomena found
|
||
was sporadic, not consistent, and therefore not of God.
|
||
For us, and those who wish to accept such, we felt that this was
|
||
sufficient proof that these religions claiming guidance from God,
|
||
were, at best, being deceived by as good a counterfeit as man or Satan
|
||
could devise.
|
||
In the claims of most non-Christian groups, one consistent
|
||
statement is that the 66 books of the Bible are either (1) not correct
|
||
or (2) not complete. We feel that the issue of correctness is totally
|
||
settled in our proofs and results. As far as the number of books
|
||
being incorrect or incomplete, we look to the following:
|
||
|
||
COMPUTER ANALYSIS OF THE ORDER
|
||
AND
|
||
NUMBER OF BOOKS OF THE BIBLE
|
||
|
||
The original sequence of the books of the Bible differ
|
||
somewhat from the sequence that is presently found in the English
|
||
Bible. The original text had the following order:
|
||
|
||
1. Genesis 23. Zephaniah 45. James
|
||
2. Exodus 24. Haggai 46. 1 Peter
|
||
3. Leviticus 25. Zechariah 47. 2 Peter
|
||
4. Numbers 26. Malachi 48. 1 John
|
||
5. Deuteronomy 27. Psalms 49. 2 John
|
||
6. Joshua 28. Proverbs 50. 3 John
|
||
7. Judges 29. Job 51. Jude
|
||
8. 1 Samuel 30. Song of Songs 52. Romans
|
||
9. 2 Samuel 31. Ruth 53. 1 Corinthians
|
||
10. 1 Kings 32. Lamentations 54. 2 Corinthians
|
||
11. 2 Kings 33. Ecclesiastes 55. Galatians
|
||
12. Isaiah 34. Esther 56. Ephesians
|
||
13. Jeremiah 35. Daniel 57. Phillipians
|
||
14. Ezekial 36. Ezra 58. Collosians
|
||
15. Hosea 37. Nehemiah 59. 1 Thessalonians
|
||
16. Joel 38. 1 Chronicles 60. 2 Thessalonians
|
||
17. Amos 39. 2 Chronicles 61. Hebrews
|
||
18. Obadiah 40. Matthew 62. 1 Timothy
|
||
19. Jonah 41. Mark 63. 2 Timothy
|
||
20. Micah 42. Luke 64. Titus
|
||
21. Naham 43. John 65. Philemon
|
||
22. Habakuk 44. Acts 66. Revelation
|
||
|
||
(Original means the Oldest or most original that were known to the
|
||
world, at this time.)
|
||
Some of the books assign themselves, either totally or in part to
|
||
a particular scribe's name, while others are anonymous. The books
|
||
which reveal (in part or totally) the scribe's identity are:
|
||
|
||
Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy ascribe themselves to
|
||
Moses, and are ascribed to Moses in other books of the Bible. Isaiah,
|
||
Jeremiah, Ezekiel and the 12 minor Prophets ascribe themselves to the
|
||
scribes whose name the book bears. Psalms is ascribed to David.
|
||
Proverbs and Song of Solomon ascribe themselves to Solomon, and
|
||
Ecclesiastes ascribes itself only to the "son of David" which most
|
||
believe to be Solomon. Daniel, Ezra and Nehemiah ascribe themselves
|
||
to these respective scribes. James, 1 and 2 Peter, and Jude bear the
|
||
names of their respective scribe. The Epistles of Paul ascribe
|
||
themselves, with the exception of Hebrews, to Paul. Revelation
|
||
ascribes itself to John.
|
||
Moses has 4, Solomon 3, Peter 2, Paul 13, and the other identified
|
||
scribes have one book each.
|
||
The anonymous books, therefore, are: Genesis, Joshua, Judges, 1
|
||
and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Kings, Job, Ruth, Lamentations, Esther, 1 and 2
|
||
Chronicles, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, 2 and 3 John, and
|
||
Hebrews.
|
||
|
||
The number 66 is 6 -11's (Feature 1). The anonymous books are 22
|
||
or 2-11's. The non-anonymous books are 44 or 4-11's (Feature 2). Of
|
||
these 44, 22 (or 2-11's) belong to writers of more than one book and
|
||
22 (again 2-11's) belong to writers of only one book (Feature 3). The
|
||
sum of the 66 numbers totals 2,211 or 201-11's. We can divide this
|
||
number in this manner: The 22 books of the writers of more than one
|
||
book have 946 (or 86-11's), while the other 44 have 1,265 (or 115-
|
||
11's) (Feature 4).
|
||
|
||
Of the 66 books, 21 are Epistles. Their numbers are (James to
|
||
Philemon or 45 to 65). The sum 2,21 for the 66 books can be divided
|
||
between Epistles and Non-Epistles. The Epistles have 1,155 (or 105-
|
||
11's) and the non-epistles have 1,056 (or 96-11's) (Feature 5).
|
||
Moses, David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Joel and Daniel are
|
||
expressly quoted in the New Testament. The number of their respective
|
||
books are 2,3,4,5,12,13,15,16,27,35. The total sum of these books is
|
||
(Feature 6) 132 (or 12-11's).
|
||
|
||
The Numeric Values of the Bible Writer's names are:
|
||
|
||
Moses 345 Isaiah 401 Jeremiah 271
|
||
Hosea 381 Joel 47 Amos 176
|
||
Jonah 71 Micah 75 Naham 104
|
||
Zephaniah 235 Zechariah 242 Malachi 101
|
||
Solomon 375 Daniel 95 Ezra 278
|
||
James 833 Haggai 21 Peter 755
|
||
Paul 781 John 781 John 1069
|
||
Ezekiel 156 Obadiah 91 Habbakuk 216
|
||
David 14 Nehemiah 113 Jude 685
|
||
|
||
The total sum of these is 7,931 - which is 11 X 7 X 103. This
|
||
can also be expressed as 721-11's, while the sum of the factors 7, 11,
|
||
and 103 is 121 or 11-11's (Features 7 and 8).
|
||
|
||
There may be some that may claim that this could be accidental or
|
||
by design. That the number of books in the Bible should be a multiple
|
||
of 11 could possibly be accidental. However, since only every 11th
|
||
number is a multiple of 11, then THE CHANCE OF ACCIDENT IS 1 IN 11!
|
||
|
||
That this number can be divided between anonymous and non-
|
||
anonymous books in such a manner as to be multiples of 11 could also
|
||
be an accident. However, THE CHANCE IS 1 IN 11 TIMES 11 or ONE CHANCE
|
||
IN 121!
|
||
|
||
That this number can be divided between the non- anonymous by 11's
|
||
among the authors of only one book and those of more than one book
|
||
could also be accidental. However, the chance for it being accident
|
||
is ONE IN 11 TIMES 11 TIMES 11 or ONE CHANCE IN 1,331.
|
||
|
||
If we carry out the progressions through the eight occurrences
|
||
proven above, we concede that each one could be accidental. However,
|
||
the chance for them ALL being so becomes ONE CHANCE IN 11 TO THE
|
||
EIGHTH POWER or ONE IN 214,358,881!
|
||
|
||
Using our pencil and a lot more paper, we find:
|
||
|
||
The sum of the numeric values of the 26 authors named as Biblical
|
||
writers which was shown above as 7931 is a multiple of seven (Feature
|
||
9) as well as eleven. The sums of the numeric values of the 26
|
||
writers (7,931) is a multiple of 11. Of this number, the 21 writers
|
||
of the Old testament (3-7's) have 3,808 or 544-7's and the new
|
||
Testament writers have (Feature 10) 4,123 or 589-7's. Of the 3,808
|
||
belonging to the Old Testament, 2,933 or 419-7's belong to the writers
|
||
of the Law and the Prophets, from Moses to Malachi, and 1,190 or 170-
|
||
7's belong to the writers of the hagiographa, from David to Nehemiah
|
||
(Feature 11). Seven of the 21 Old Testament writers (3-7's) are
|
||
expressly named in the New Testament; These are Moses, David, Isaiah,
|
||
Jeremiah, Daniel, Hosea and Joel. Their numeric value is 1,554 or
|
||
222-7's (Features 12 & 13). The numeric value of Moses, who heads the
|
||
list, and John who closes it is 345 and 1069 which equal 1414 or 202-
|
||
7's (Feature 14)
|
||
|
||
The Bible begins with the Hebrew word "beginning" and ends with
|
||
the Greek word "saint". The Hebrew word occurs in the following
|
||
books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, 1 Samuel,
|
||
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, Amos, Micah, Psalms, Proverbs, Job,
|
||
Ecclesiastes, Daniel, Nehemiah and 2 Chronicles. The Greek word
|
||
occurs in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John,
|
||
Jude, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Ephesians, Philemon and
|
||
Revelation. These books total 42 or 6-7's. Take the number of these
|
||
books in the order of their respective place and the sum is 1575 or
|
||
225-7's.
|
||
|
||
The possibility of these eight features of SEVEN, and the eight
|
||
features of ELEVEN occurring together,is ONE IN 5,764,801 TIMES
|
||
214,358,881 or ONE IN ONE THOUSAND MILLION MILLIONS !
|
||
|
||
It would be IMPOSSIBLE, therefore to claim accident or conspiracy
|
||
in the phenomena indicated. The above clearly demonstrates the design
|
||
of:
|
||
|
||
1. THE NUMBER AND ORDER OF BOOKS AS RECEIVED. *feature 1*
|
||
|
||
2. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN ANONYMOUS AND NON-ANONYMOUS BOOKS *2*
|
||
|
||
3. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN BOOKS WRITTEN BY AN AUTHOR OF A SINGLE BOOK
|
||
AND THOSE WRITTEN BY AUTHORS OF MORE THAN ONE BOOK. *3 & 4*
|
||
|
||
4. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN EPISTLE AND NON EPISTLE BOOKS. *5*
|
||
|
||
5. THE NUMBER OF O.T. WRITERS QUOTED IN THE N.T. *6*
|
||
|
||
The Bible was written by some thirty different writers from many
|
||
different walks of life over a period of sixteen hundred years between
|
||
its first and last writers. If we assume that it was exclusively
|
||
written by HUMAN hands, we cannot account for the mathematic phenomena
|
||
demonstrated. If we assume that a SUPERIOR MATHEMATICAL MIND (The
|
||
Mathematical Author of Nature) has planned these phenomena, then we
|
||
are provided with an immediate and rational explanation of these
|
||
phenomena and others found in the Bible.
|
||
|
||
THE GENEALOGY OF OUR LORD JESUS
|
||
|
||
The genealogy of Christ as found in Matthew 1:1-17 consists of two
|
||
main divisions: Verses 1-11 cover the period from Abraham, the father
|
||
of the chosen people, to the Captivity, when the Jews ceased being an
|
||
independent people. Verses 12-17 cover the period from the Captivity
|
||
to the promised Messiah, The Christ.
|
||
|
||
The Vocabulary has 49 words (7 x 7). Of these 49 words, 28 (4x7)
|
||
begin with a vowel; and 21 (3x7) begin with a consonant. Seven words
|
||
end with a vowel (1x7) and 42 (6x7) end with a consonant. These 49
|
||
words consist of 266 letters (7x2x19 OR 38x7). Of these 266 letters,
|
||
140 (20x7) are vowels and 126 (18x7) are consonants. Of these 49
|
||
words, 35 (5x7) occur more than once in this passage, while 14 (2x7)
|
||
occur only once. Seven (1x7) occur in more than one form, while 42
|
||
(6x7) occur in only one form. 42 words (6x7) are nouns while 7 (1x7)
|
||
words are not nouns. Of these nouns, 35 (5x7) are proper names, and 7
|
||
(1x7) are common nouns. Of the proper names, 28 (4x7) are male
|
||
ancestors, while 7 (1x7) are not.
|
||
|
||
If we take a look at the Birth of Jesus in verses 18-25, we find
|
||
the following:
|
||
|
||
. The Number of words is 161 (23 x 7)
|
||
. Their Numeric value is 93,394 (13,342 x 7)
|
||
. The Number of Vocabulary is 77 (11 x 7)
|
||
. The Numeric value of the Vocabulary is 51,247 (7,321 x 7)
|
||
|
||
There are six words found nowhere else in Matthew:
|
||
|
||
. Their numeric value is 5,005 (715 x 7)
|
||
. These six words have 56 letters (8 x 7)
|
||
|
||
. The 161 words occur in 105 forms (15 x 7)
|
||
. The Numeric value of these forms is 65,429 (9,347 x 7)
|
||
|
||
. In these 105 forms are 35 verbs (5 x 7)
|
||
. There are 7 proper names (1 x 7)
|
||
. The number of letters in these proper names is 42 (6 x 7)
|
||
|
||
One word EMMANUEL is used nowhere else in the N.T. and has a
|
||
numeric value of 644 (92 x 7). (add the figures 644 together for 14)
|
||
(2 x 7)
|
||
|
||
. The number forms exclusive to this passage by Matthew is 14 (2 x 7)
|
||
. Their numeric value is 8,715 (1,245 x 7)
|
||
|
||
CHANCE?
|
||
|
||
1 in 10 to the power of 169
|
||
or
|
||
1 followed by 169 zeros!
|
||
|
||
LOOK AT THE WORDS OF THE ANGEL TO JOSEPH
|
||
|
||
. The angel uses 28 of the 77 vocabulary words (4 x 7)
|
||
. The numeric value of all the angel's words is 21,042 (3,006 x 7)
|
||
. The angel uses 35 forms (5 x 7)
|
||
. These 35 have 168 letters (24 x 7)
|
||
. The numeric value of these letters is 19,397 (2,771 x 7)
|
||
. The angel does not use 49 vocabulary words (7 x 7)
|
||
. The angel does not use 70 forms (10 x 7)
|
||
|
||
The Chance of this being an accident or by human design is 1 in
|
||
206,000,000,000,000,000,000 (206 QUINTILLION - 21 digits)

OUR INTENT IN THIS REPORT
|
||
|
||
It is not the desire of this report to provide anything other
|
||
than an insight into the immeasurable intelligence that produced the
|
||
Bible. The same intelligence that produced the limitless stretches of
|
||
space, that produced the smallest one cell creature, the same one that
|
||
created it ALL, is the only source that could have produced the Bible
|
||
as it presently stands.
